I was mortified and carried that mortification with me for years. I had bad acne and up to that point had faked confidence. Where my friends tried to tell me it wasn't bad to help boost my esteem, it took one honest child (out of the mouth of babes) to tear it down. I smiled and laughed my way through it too. What other response is there? I once had a very similar thing happen to me as a teenager. I was mortified and carried that mortification with me for years.

and once in the mountains, to a very fat man who was telling him how cute he was and how clever hiker he must have been he just said ” why are you so fat?”

totally embarassing!

My daughter(shes 2) calls her Uncle Hector, Uncle Icky...(we all call him Heci, and her traslation is Icky..as well as my son) He is hispanic. Well, my daughter a couple months ago was shopping with me, and we were looking at clothes. No big deal, right? There was a fairly large hispanic family shopping as well, with a few men in the mix. It was upon seeing the men that my daughter starts yelling, "Look mommy! It's Icky!! Hi Icky!" I turned sooooo red, and quickly said, "oh no honey, thats not UNCLE Icky...." sooooo embarassed!!!! How do you explain that to a 2 year old!?! I know what you mean!!
